I think it would balance out a lot better than the current system, but whatever.

Sorry, but I totally disagree. Many times I'll quickly glance at an article to see if it is something I need. It would be unpleasantly bothersome to have a popup every time I left an article.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

An idea that's been floating around in my head for a while now, is the possibility of having a place for users to register ideas for articles that they'd like to see. This way, authors can see what topics people are interested in, and submit an appropriate article or three on the topic. Ideally, they would register an interest in the article so that posters could see that their ideas were being considered (not necessarily who was going to write them, merely something along the lines of "3 authors interested").

We actually had this years and years ago and it was never used. Suggestions were made, sure, but the follow up was very, very low.

There are a lot more authors now.

I've seen a lot of requests like this on forums (even received requests on my email) "Dear sir, please give me code to ...".
So, Pete, I don't think that is a good idea. People should publish about things they excel, not what the audience is asking.

Just because an article idea is asked for, it doesn't mean you have to pick it up. Plus, there may be someone who excels in that area who didn't think anyone would be interested in it. Like QA, the requests would be moderated so that it doesn't just become "Gimme Codez Urgntz."

I am still not getting notification for a replay to a post. I do get the newletter.

Have you checked the setting in your profile, under the Forums tab, titled Send me an e-mail if someone replies to the message.
|
|
|
|
|
Yep, did that after the first reply did not send. (and a couple of times since) Maybe I will try a new email address and see if the email is blocked.

I've made a couple of changes under the Newsletter & Emails tab of MySettings for your account.
This should fix you up.

Changed my email address but did not get a message about the change, changed it back and got the notification message. We will see how that goes.
Thank you!

Success! Finally got a reply and also got the email.

Two posts down from this - looks like an issue with the moderation queue.

And he does not appear in MVP list this year.

You need an active account for that. I'm sure it will be rectified soon.

Was he suppose to be in MVP list? What's his name?
Thanks

Fixed.
We're making a change to make all member reports public.
We're sick of the anonymous closure of accounts by members who, for whatever reason, seem to feel it's OK to abuse their status.
We'll let the public notice of who closed whom speak for itself.
